Tippecanoe and Tyler Too

Tippecanoe and Tyler Too

By necessity, by proclivity, by delight, Ralph Waldo Emerson said in 1876, 'we all quote'. But often the phrases that fall most readily from our collective lips - like 'fire when ready', 'speak softly and carry a big stick', or 'nice guys finish last' - are those whose origins and true meanings we have ceased to consider. Restoring three-dimensionality to more than fifty of these American sayings, "Tippecanoe and Tyler Too" turns cliches back into history by telling the life stories of the words that have served as our most powerful battle cries, rallying points, laments, and inspirations. In individual entries on slogans and catchphrases from the early seventeenth to the late twentieth century, Jan R. Van Meter reveals that each one is a living, malleable entity that has profoundly shaped and continues to influence our public culture. From John Winthrop's 'We shall be as a city upon a hill' and the 1840 Log Cabin Campaign's "Tippecanoe and Tyler Too" to Martin Luther King Jr.'s 'I have a dream' and Ronald Reagan's 'Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall', each of Van Meter's selections emerges as a memory device for a larger political or cultural story. Taken together in Van Meter's able hands, these famous slogans and catchphrases give voice to our common history even as we argue about where it should lead us.

A major contemporary writer, Anne Tyler has published 13 novels and almost 50 short stories. Her earliest fiction was published in the Duke University literary magazine during her undergraduate years. In 1964, she published her first novel, If Morning Ever Comes. She attained fame with The Accidental Tourist (1985), which won the National Book Critics Circle Award and was made into a movie. Her next novel, Breathing Lessons (1988), won the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction, and she has acquired a loyal following of readers. She has also written numerous reviews, and her short fiction has appeared in an assortment of magazines over the last 30 years. Tyler's broad popularity has been matched by a rise in scholarly interest in her works, and each year sees an increasing number of books and articles published about her writings.Many of her readers are interested in knowing more about her life, artistic development, and earlier works. And because much of her short fiction is inaccessible, even scholars have difficulty forming a comprehensive view of her literary career. This reference book is a comprehensive and detailed guide to Anne Tyler's fictional worlds. The volume begins with an introductory essay that overviews her life as a writer. The book then provides alphabetically arranged entries for her novels, short stories, and characters. Entries for novels are primarily critical. But because her short fiction is less available, entries for those works also provide extensive plot summaries. There are also numerous entries for the various themes and motifs that flavor her work, such as Aging, Diaries, Games, Holidays, and Radios. Many entries cite reviews and criticisms, and the volume closes with an extensive bibliography and appendices.

In 1972, a stranger revealed a prophecy to a teenager named Flower in Seattle, Washington. The mysterious old woman told the girl that she would have a son one day who would be a gift to the world. Twenty-five years later, the girl, now a forty-three year-old woman who has changed her name to Kathleen, is living in a small Eastern Washington town where she is a single mother to a seventeen year-old boy named Tyler. Tyler is a pretty normal kid. He has a crazy best friend named Preston and has always had a serious crush on a girl named Jessie. He's not a star athlete, his grades are pretty average and he puts up with getting pushed around by Jessie's obnoxious boyfriend, Graham. But, one day, everything changes as he begins to develop abilities he's only read about in comic books. As major catastrophes around the world are mysteriously averted by unusual heroes, Kathleen witnesses the fulfillment of the earlier prophecy as she watches Tyler evolve into a living miracle. The Gift of Tyler is a delightful story that will simultaneously make you laugh out loud and pull at your heartstrings. This is the first release in the Gift of the Elements series.
